I‘ve played 20 odd hours of the initial release version on my Deck and hadn’t hit its content cap. It ran smooth, I didn‘t encounter any bugs or crashes.

Gameplay-wise, it‘s more shallow in the farming aspect but cozier in its atmosphere compared to SDV. Personally, I had a lot of fun, probably the most in a farming sim after SDV. I loved the cast.

I‘ve read criticism that it‘s just a clone which even if true (IMO it‘s not), I don‘t think is a problem: I‘ve played so much SDV, I really needed a different flavor of farming sim (but without any extra BS) to get over the fatigue.

The initial release was already a good and competent game by its own merits, IMO. However, it’s not the second coming of farming sim Christ. This is just my 20 hours impression of the release version, it had two major updates since IIRC.
